“So in a sense, the left is unifying at the level of software, and the right is unifying at the level of hardware. Because the right says, it's our genetics, it's our culture, it's our language, but reproduction is much slower than conversion, right? This is like Athens versus Jerusalem, like it's a tension within Western culture, like is it genetics, nation, land, soil, blood, et cetera?

Or is it religion, law, in a sense, software versus hardware, right? Like this is the cloud versus the land. That's like a long tension within humanity, right?”
